Houston…Big and Bold Event Space

Houston is America’s fourth largest city…for now. As the years pass, Houston continues to grow at a fast and ferocious pace. With the most diverse population in the United States and a low cost of living, sunny skies and access to the Gulf of Mexico beaches, there’s no wonder that Houston is a great place to live and a great place to hold your next conference, meeting, or event.

Houston, We Have an Event Venue Solution

Houston is sometimes called the “Space City” because it is home to NASA’s Johnson Space Center where research, flight training and space mission control takes place. It’s also home to several options for incredible space for corporate events, association meetings, galas, weddings, professional meetings, and conferences. Consider NASA’s Space Center Houston, the official Visitors Center of NASA’s Johnson Space Center as the backdrop for your next corporate meeting, event, or social occasion. Boost excitement with immersive experiences in 250,000+ square feet of indoor and outdoor space that feature engaging space and science exhibits and activations.

Houston’s Vibrant Downtown and Its Unique Venues

Downtown Houston is teeming with event venues that turn tradition on its head. If you’re looking for a unique option that offers the complete multi-day experience all under one roof, consider The Whitehall. Combining modern styling with Southern hospitality, The Whitehall provides corporate and professional meeting and event groups with 12,000 square feet of meeting and event space, overnight accommodations for 400, extensive catering options and professional event coordination services. If a wedding is in your future, consider saying “I do” amid this historically charming venue. Speaking of historical, imagine meeting in a venue that was one of the first fire stations in Houston. Station 3, originally called Stonewall, is in the downtown area and offers 5,800 square feet of event space in a two-story building with high, fourteen-foot ceilings. Both levels have an open floor plan concept that allow meeting, event, and wedding planners the opportunity to create a unique experience.

History and Culture Gathers in Houston

As stated earlier, Houston has the most diverse population of any major city in America and this statistic comes to life through the abundant venues you can find in and around the city. There is a vast array of options for gatherings where conference guest or life event attendees can interact with historical, cultural, and enriching exhibits and experiences. Take for instance, Czech Center Museum Houston, a charming yet affordable Baroque Palace reminiscent of European castles with three spaces to accommodate up to 250 guests. The Holocaust Museum Houston is the fourth largest Holocaust Museum in the country and provides a unique experience for guests. In addition to world-class exhibits and cutting-edge galleries, the L.E.E.D. certified 57,000-square-foot facility features state-of-the-art classrooms, reception areas, a theater, and an amphitheater for events and meetings. The Asia Society Texas Center offers versatile spaces and a warm, intimate atmosphere, making it one of Houston’s premier event facilities. This venue is perfect for executive retreats, business meetings and events, private screenings, and life events such as wedding receptions. The Center for African American Military History, also known as the Buffalo Soldiers National Museum, exists primarily to create fun and educational programs that engage the entire family and teach the history of the Buffalo Soldiers. The Museum is also a fantastic venue to host wonderful memorable gatherings of all types. Originally built as an armory in 1925, this venue offers four event venues accommodating up to 500 guests.

Experience Life in the Wild in Houston

Meetings and parties among the creatures we share the earth with is another unique way to gather. In Houston, consider planning a reception, corporate social event or family reunion among the animals and natural habitat you can find at the Houston Zoo. With a variety of unique experiences, 15 spaces to rent and a maximum capacity of 2,500 for special events, the Houston Zoo offers a wonderful and wild option for event planners and professionals. Is your group more aquatically inclined? Look no further than the Downtown Aquarium Houston’s Nautilus Ballroom, which will transport you to a world of elegance and refinement.
